The Seed Indeed- Part 1
The Seed Indeed- Part 1 – The Seed was an experimental drug rehabilitation program located in Broward and Dade county Florida in the 70’s. The Seed was operated by Art Barker who was a recovering alcoholic and failed stand up comedian. Using some of the basic principles of AA and incorporating peer pressure group-cult techniques, he manipulated many parents into submitting their children into a program with no proven results. Run by former drug addicts and court ordered felons, the program quickly lost its financial support when the exaggerated claims of success were made public and questions about the programs methods came under scrutiny. The Seed is believed to be one of the predecessor for various other gulag type drug rehabs which abuse and mistreat young children all around the country including Straight,Inc.,Kids helping Kids and Pathway Family Center, which are all shut down The video is archived television footage provided by Florida Moving Image Archives Miami-Dade Public Library.

Young Omaha Couple on Crystal Meth Lost in a Snowstorm Dies Despite 4 Hours of 911 Calls
Young Omaha Couple on Crystal Meth Lost in a Snowstorm Dies Despite 4 hours of 911 calls – Janelle Hornickel and Michael Wamsley. I wish I knew more about them and I am saddened they were immortalized by this mistake. Bigoted comments demeaning drug addicts with insults, etc will not be tolerated. Save your mocking of human beings somewhere else. Tragic and unforgettable. Yes they were stupid but this haunts me still. These were not methheads, but young kids who deserved a chance to correct a mistake. Meth is EVIL. This clip needs to be online. Omaha, NE Nebraska USA
How Much Jail Time Might I Do if I Turn Myself in on My Warrent?
Question by stil runnin: How much jail time might I do if I turn myself in on my warrent?
In 2004 I caught my second felony possesion charge. I recieved a 4 month treatment program and 18 months probation for my crime. I completed the 4 month treatment program and another 4 months of probation. That left me with 10 months on my probation But I started getting high and screwed up my drops for the probation officer. He gave me a chance to clean up my act and I didn’t take it. I was supposed to drop clean but I couldn’t stop using. So I made the stupid descision of drinking a substance that was supposed to help me drop clean but only wound up getting detected. So my probation officer violated me for 3 dirty drops and said the 3rd was alterated. I was terrified of going to jail while still using, so I went on the run and have been running since November 2005.
I’m in a program now and have been clean and free of drugs since April 2006. I have paperwork that will back that up . Does anyone think a jugde will show some mercy? Serious answers only. This is in Illinois.
